As I settle down at home
After an evening out but I chose to be alone
Alone is not always a negative
Often it gives opportunity to be reflective
Just reflecting on the time that has passed
Tv on, background noise is all and  I maybe smashed
A drink or two w friends
It’s a means to an end
I know my clarity is true
Just waiting, watching for something new
Most I engage with don’t meet the mark
I am willing to wait for “you” and that spark
The spark we will feel instantly inside
The hope, the dream, the anticipation I cannot hide
As partners and friends we will succeed
It may be a dream, maybe unreachable but that is not what I truly believe

The pain is constant and so clear
My need for you is masking my fear
Fear of losing what could have been
For a chance at whirlwind that may be fun
My ability to love is great
It equals my ability to agitate
The  night moves closer and I am lost
I feel often what love has cost
I mask it by being fun and me
But truly I wreck everything that I see
It’s painful cuz I’ve never known
What it’s like to have a home
I like the independent Mike
But seriously what is there to like
A man who can’t give all
Isn’t a man at all

It’s interesting the paths we take
The people we meet the relationships we make
You inspired me to think and write
Giving me hope... despite
Despite my doubts and fears
I feel alive, more alive in years
You shared your love for poems
Now I seek and think, my heart again roams

Because of you

Slowly and softly I kiss your neck
Our bodies in sync as we connect

The passion, excitement cannot be contained
You feel my arousal, and it won’t be tame

Your movements, acceptance, for what’s to come
I touch you, lick u it’s part of our fun

Breathing deeply you feel complete
Caressing and holding as we slip off to sleep

Standing in a crowd alone
Thinking, and thinking it is all monotone
No feeling, no hope, no one to care
Waking up to emptiness no one to share
Is a cruel reality, it is true despair
I will seek, I will look but no one is there
My past is present and reveals my fear
Just a soul searching for what, I don’t know
I will sleep and dream, of tomorrow

Waiting, and waiting I need you here
My desire my passion for you is sincere
Kissing and touching you is what I need
Skin to skin, I beg and I plead
My heart beats for who you are
Even inches away, that seems too far
My love, my soul,  I give to you
The bond we develop seems so new
The connection we have made, is so real
My Passion and commitment is here to steal
Love like us, love like ours
Committed, and strong we will tower
Be present to prove our love
The path directed by some above

Time slips by as I wait for you
You is a metaphor for something new
A soul I can hold and share our dreams
A woman, a partner will strengthen our team
Moving forward and feeling some strain
Crying at times, laughing and some pain
My heart is open for someone more
But a piece is missing when you walked out that door
